How to set template having shapes with NO fill?

Hi,

I'd appreciate help.

Although I set my default templates for documents and photos having shapes with NO fill, always I open a new document based on those templates Xara overlap my defaults with shapes having fill.

Is it possible to set a template having shapes with NO fill?

Thanks for the assistance,
Carlos

Carlos, I have never checked but I can imagine Xara not having the capability to store your required settings.

All I can suggest is place a small object off the Template page with the attributes set (e.g., Line width 1px, Line colour Red, No Fill) and Save that. Open then Select and Copy.
On your first new Shape, apply Ctrl+Shift+A.
If you have set Options > General > General Options > Tick "Give new objects most recent attributes", you are good to go.

This seems correct. Whilst the stroke colour/width can be remembered Xara appears to default to a black fill.
